I think EvilEvilKitten meant that as a trick question that you should ask.
In any case, it could also be that he doesn't have many friends to introduce you to. This would be rare in a normal case, but you said that he was a virgin and many males who are virgins are also rather isolated socially, so it is not out of the question.
Also, somebody who is socially isolated does not necessarily give out the anti-social vibe. I am a case in point. You would not be able to tell that I am a virgin or that I am pretty reclusive if you met me or even if you knew me in a casual manner (obviously if you knew me pretty well that would be a different matter). Perhaps your boyfriend is similar.
As to the strange (for you) behavior that he exhibits, it could simply be that being a virgin, he doesn't know what the proper 'etiquette' is to take things to the next level. I sure wouldn't know how to properly proceed to 'further levels' if I had a girlfriend - your boyfriend's case may be the same. Holding hands might simply seem an innocent enough way for him to show affection for you, yet not ruin anything by making inappropriate moves or by making appropriate moves but badly or at a wrong time. Remember that he probably doesn't have any experience in this, so what is weird for you is just new to him and he might not know how to proceed even if he desires a deeper relationship.
